Journal 4 week 2 (Journal about my activity lesson)

What is your general feeling about TP at the end of the day? Today I did my activity lesson, I wasn't that nervous because the teacher helped me a lot in preparing for the lesson so I prepared to do my lesson in a good way.

Reflect on the duties / activities did you carry out during the preschool today. How do you feel about your efforts? Was there anything you could have done to improve the quality of the learning experience for the children? What I could improve or change a little bit that I should have an extra activity for the students because they finished from their activity in 3 min and start to feel little bored. However, what I did is to let them write a simple sentence about their activity as my teacher mentor do.

What was the most interesting activity or strategy you saw your MENTOR use? Why did you think it was interesting and worth noting/remembering? Compare this with previous TP experience. What I did use when I wanted from the students to focus on me instead of the story I said 5,4,3,2,1 and they saw my and listen to directions.

What progress have you made in terms of your own personal targets for TP this semester? Which TP competencies do you feel you achieved and which do you think that you need to focus on next time? Discuss ways in which you could do this. I think I achieved or I understand how I could relate the story or the subject in something that the students do in their life so it will be easy for the students to understand.

What evidence of learning did you identify/document today? Relate this to the ADEC curriculum goals. Read fluently at instructional level with attention to punctuation.  As students read with me in shared reading time, and one groups did guided reading with me

What was the most important thing you learnt about the role of the teacher in managing all aspects of the school day? Compare this with previous TP experience and where possible make links with college based learning. That I have to deliver a Lesson that students will enjoy. As I saw my KG mentor in the previous TP deliver numbers using number songs that let the students enjoy the lesson.
